There is no place on earth quite like the pristine beauty you'll see in the Florida Keys. To begin your voyage, you first need to choose the type of RV that is right for you.
Types of Motorhome Rentals for the Florida Keys:
Class A: These luxurious, bus-like motorhomes are extremely spacious and comfortable. Full kitchens, roomy bathrooms, seating areas, and separate sleeping quarters are standard.
Class C: Though smaller than the Class A, Class C motorhomes can be quite roomy. For a motorhome rental in the Keys, Class C may be preferable to drive due to the narrow roads found on the islands.
Class B: Also known as a campervan, this is the smallest of the drivable varieties. Most of the space is dedicated to sleeping, but an outdoor kitchen and a portable toilet may be included.
Towable: A travel trailer or pop up camper rental in the Florida Keys might be a desirable option. These RVs can be as small as 10 feet long and as long as 40 feet, and they're towed by an appropriate SUV or truck.
Some of the very best campgrounds in Florida are nestled in the Keys. John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park is simply breathtaking and is the crown jewel of the Keys. Despite having over 40 paved sites for RVs, spots here are quickly booked to capacity. For those lucky enough to snag a reservation, the RV sites can accommodate up to 55-foot-long vehicles. Hiking, snorkeling, fishing, and more activities are available on-site, including gorgeous glass-bottom boat tours.
Further south, Bahia Honda State Park is another favorite spot. Beach lovers flock to this park due to its snow-white sands and turquoise waters. With 79 spots, availability is better than John Pennekamp, but these spots are also in high demand. Sites accommodate up to a 50-foot motorhome, and all include electrical, sewer, and water hookups. There's also an on-property concession and a public marina.
Just north of the Keys, off the coast of mainland Florida, is Biscayne National Park. Adventurous visitors can dive to a multitude of coral reefs and shipwrecks or sail among the bottlenose dolphins. Best of all, this gorgeous park has free admission.
The Florida Keys offers access to the most remote of all the US National Parks, theDry Tortugas National Park. Located 70 miles off the coast of Key West, this isolated spot is accessible only by ferry, charter boat or seaplane. Rich in history and legend, the Dry Tortugas is known for housing a 19th-century fortress, an abundance of sea turtles, and even a pirate or two.
Since many of the day adventures in the Keys involve boats and island locations where RV parking might not be ideal, you may wish to temporarily store your Florida Keys RV Rental.
Centrally located Big Pine Storage has outdoor, uncovered spaces for boat, RV and travel-trailer storage. The small lot offers protection and security for your RV so that you can enjoy all the Keys have to offer without any parking concerns.
Luckily for camper rentals in the Keys, the islands offer several sanitation stations scattered from the lower to upper Keys, including:
Bahia Honda Rest Area, Bahia Honda Key
Sunshine Key RV Resort and Marina, Big Pine Key
Military Park / Marathon Cottages and RV Park, Marathon
Sugarloaf KOA, Sugarloaf Key
Lazy Lakes RV Resort, Sugarloaf Key
John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park, Key Largo, FL
Literary buffs can visit the grand estate of Ernest Hemingway in Key West, FL. Here, the author lived and worked for over a decade of his life, penning some of his most renowned novels. The estate is home to about 40 cats that are direct descendants of Hemingway's original six-toed feline, Snow White. Despite the tropical heat, the home does not have even a single ceiling fan as Hemingway's fashion-obsessed second wife, Pauline Pfeiffer, replaced them all with chandeliers.
The Florida Keys are among the best places for water sports that you'll find anywhere. Opportunities for jet skiing, boating, and sports fishing are all abundant from the northern Florida Keys to the southernmost point. Since it's such a popular vacation destination, you'll find nearly endless options for food and drink in the Keys. If you're looking for a place to get started, head to Duval Street in Key West for an unforgettable pub crawl.
Traveling in the Florida Keys is very straightforward as there is only one major road, the Overseas Highway (US 1). Though traffic does get backed up from time to time on this road, simply get out of your camper rental in the Florida Keys, and look down from the bridge to see sea turtles, flocks of manta rays, and dolphins dancing in the water below.
Motorhomes are divided into Class A, B, and C vehicles. On average expect to pay $185 per night for Class A, $149 per night for Class B and $179 per night for Class C.
